"Roger and his partner John are a tremendous team! Roger is the painting expert, while John is the carpenter, though they each have varied skills to assist each other. Their skill level was impressive, and Roger's pricing was very fair and affordable. They were on-time every day, and were friendly and courteous._____ I purchased an 8 ft. Harvey vinyl patio door years ago, but it sat in the garage for years. Sight unseen, they unpackaged the door pieces and installed the patio door as if it were second nature to them. The door was shorter and narrower than the old one they removed, but John filled the gaps and finished the trim to make it look like it was a perfect fit!_____ Roger's skill at fixing many seam cracks in the walls & ceiling of our family room was amazing. John was also tasked with installing sills and molding for two windows, which looked perfect after he was finished! Then Roger went to work painting all the trim, some previously stained, and the walls. He primed all the trim before painting them with two coats. He also applied two coats to the walls, blending all rolled sections so no lines were visible. From all angles the walls look excellent!_____ When the work was done they cleaned up after themselves, removed all waste and brought it to the curb for a trash pick-up. Later, a dear friend of ours came over to see the renovated room and was very impressed, saying that she might be calling Roger for some work at her own house. That's saying a lot because she's a stickler for details._____ I can honestly recommend Rogers Top Notch Painting very highly for friendliness, punctuality, quality, affordability and attention to detail. They will definitely be hired to do more work for us in the future!"

"In painting the condo all areas were completed to my satisfaction, however there were gaps in communication between Robert and myself. The paint crew seemed rushed which resulted in some areas not being properly masked off and paint spray remained. I found after their cleanup, plastic and tape remained on some surfaces and fixtures. In dealing with this contractor I would suggest getting each room documented regarding the type of work, type of paint, and cleanup. I received the level of service I paid for."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Many peel-and-stick wallpapers aren’t moisture-resistant, so if you install them in high-humidity rooms, mold can grow behind the wallpaper. It’s best to reserve peel-and-stick wallpaper for bedrooms, living rooms, and other rooms with lower humidity levels. Not only does this minimize the risk of mold growth, but it also keeps the wallpaper from bubbling or peeling.

The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

When comparing peel-and-stick and traditional wallpaper, the better choice depends on your specific needs and space. Peel-and-stick wallpaper is more budget-friendly and easier to DIY install. On the other hand, traditional wallpaper lasts much longer and holds up better in a wider variety of spaces, including areas with moisture like kitchens and bathrooms.
